In 1744 the first rules of golf were submitted in writing for the first time. This is when the laws of golf were made for an annual competition. In the 1800’s is when golf became really popular. Because the equipment was hand crafted causing it to be quite expensive it was a sport enjoyed mostly by the wealthy. In the 1850’s the first private clubs were created and they hired green keepers to maintain the lawns. When the metal club heads and shafts started being produced, the game lost its prestige in the U.S. because then the average person could afford to golf.
